Totally agree with that assessment. If it becomes a place where only previously rejected candidates can voice their angst, then its all downhill...

  I don't know if the offer really was insultingly low or not, or if he/she interviewed poorly, or if he/she is highly skilled or not, or whatever. These facts aren't terribly important. Having a feedback mechanism might encourage people to be nice, and I can't see how that's bad. Yeah it might suck to have to spend an extra two minutes talking to every candidate, but I don't see that making or breaking a company. http://www.paulgraham.com/ronco.html http://www.paulgraham.com/ronco.html

  You'd have to be one hell of an idiot to air your grievances about being rejected for a job application on a public forum like this. Great way to reduce your job prospects for the future. I suspect this sort of thing would be fairly rare, because it looks bad on both the applicant and the company.

    Some folks create throwaway accounts and post anonymously.

    Hasn't the internet taught us that there are quite a lot of idiots out there? (And no, I'm not excluding the possibility that I myself am one of them)
